Oh, you ladies crack me up....I love reading your posts, laughing & helping each other. Thanks to all that chime in with advice. I have a sandpaper board that came with felt that I use to lay my block pieces on, just like the pictures show, then carry it to sewing machine and sew away..it helps keep the pieces in order. I've had it for years, it's been a lifesaver for sure. Anything that helps keep your pieces in order, works. YES, unfortunately, there are lots of HST, (half square triangles) in these 10 1/2" blocks. When a pattern says '10 1/2" unfinished' that means when it's sewn into your quilt design, it will end up at 10". Maybe when this Bee is finished with these 10 1/2" blocks, we'll do something larger..lolo

TSC, you are doing great, just keep on keeping on. Tomara, great to see you posting again. Thanks again to you gals that always help.

Hugs
Jean
